Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

  • Whether the development has been lawfully implemented in accordance with planning permissions granted
  • Whether the development is lawful because it is immune from enforcement action due to the passage of time

What decided it

The development departed materially from the approved plans and conditions, particularly in terms of internal dimensions and the extent of demolition and rebuilding, such that it was not lawfully implemented and could not benefit from immunity from enforcement action.
